Suggest Remedy For Low Confidence Level Due To Forgetfulness
hi sir i am an undergraduate engineering student. the problem with me is that i forget near about 70 to 80 percents things.due to which i am facing a lot of problems not only in studies but with daily life. because of this problem i m loosing my confidence.
I can understand your concern regarding forgetfulness. At this stage in life, being preoccupied with something or anxiety are the most common causes of forgetfulness. Underlying depression can also lead to the same which further results in decreased self confidence.
I suggest you should consult a psychiatrist for complete evaluation of your condition. In case of anxiety and depression, you will benefit by medications from the group selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) like paroxetine.
In addition, you should start exercising daily which will help you relax and feel better. Relaxation exercises like deep breathing will help you concentrate better.
I do hope that i was able to help with your problem.
Best wishes,
Dr. Sunil Gupta
